Dear Minister McKenna:

I respectfully ask you to order a full CEAA joint panel review of the proposed Springbank dry dam west of Calgary.

This is no ordinary infrastructure project. The Springbank dry dam would have a massive, permanent and devastating impact on my community and surrounding areas. This permanent project would wipe out homes and businesses, destroy sensitive prairie grassland and delicate river areas, irreversibly impact fish and wildlife, impact area groundwater, and no doubt create airborne dust and contaminants.

I believe SR1 is a flawed project and better options exist that protect more people with less environmental and social impact.

Recently, a court decision mandated you to personally examine this project. I ask you to order an independent and intensive joint review of the Springbank dry dam proposal. Our community and the unique environment now at risk are worthy of a strong federal review.

Don't Damn Springbank

What started as a group of residents, businesses and community organizations impacted by this project is now a growing voice for Springbank, Bragg Creek, Redwood Meadows and other high-risk communities being ignored by the proposed Springbank reservoir. Our mission is to motivate the Government of Alberta to pursue more effective, natural, and environmentally responsible flood mitigation projects without destructive impacts to any community.
